Why they work

Why loop keyrings work for education

Students carry keys everywhere: halls, shared houses, bikes and lockers. A keyring in university or school colours is something they will actually use, unlike most open day freebies.

Keyrings also work for fundraising. PTAs and student societies can sell them for £1 to £2 at fairs and events, with most of the price going to the cause.

For leavers and graduates, a keyring with the year on it is a small, lasting reminder of where they studied.

How they’re used

Open days and recruitment

Hand them to prospective students and parents. It is a keepsake that reminds them of your campus when they make their choice.

Freshers’ week and halls

Give one with every halls key or in welcome packs. Students are getting new keys anyway, so the timing is perfect.
